Julian, yes that is the correct link. Obviously, haven't seen the car in person yet as I'm in CA but the seller seemed honest. I'm happy with the transaction. I wasn't looking for another Pantera but this one seemed too good to pass up at the price.

My Dad is car guy (likes Fords) so I'm planning on letting him play with this new one. Hopefully, he doesn't kill himself in it.

Nice buy Tony! Thanks for keeping the economy moving! Seats are interesting. I have Daytona seats in my other car, and I'm not sure I've ever seen them in a Pantera. Was this an option? Owner upgrade?

Curious as to how nice the car is when you get it. Keep us posted. Really good buy on your behalf, proving again that speed to decision is a good advantage. Well done.
Tony,

BEAUTIFUL CAR!! Looks like you really found something nice to work with. I would definitely call this the deal of the day. There is always something to improve on these cars, but again, looks like you did very well on this one. The underside of this car looks fantastic.

I am happy for you, and would love to see it in person sometime.

Do you know how you are going to get it to CA? Just curious on the cost of shipping from PA to (assuming) CA?

Thanks, Mark

Shipping in an enclosed hauler is around $2200 coast to coast, fully insured. I used Horseless Carriage on three occasions and they have a fixed cost East to West.

all you guys with multiple panteras are making it much more difficult to get our first one!

JK, it looks like you got a great car. I was really tempted to bid too. Good luck with it.
So quick update on this story.....

When you buy a car without seeing it (I'm in CA and the car was in PA) you never know what you're going to get. Every seller has a different view of his/her car.

My brother took deliver of the car last week and said "its not how it was advertised"....

After taking a deep breath, he finally tells me that it is SIGNIFICANTLY better than we could have every expected. In fact, its mint. It must have been an AZ car its entire life as its absolutely void of any sign of rust whatsoever. The body panels, spoiler etc are quite frankly the best fit we've ever seen on any car It would be difficult to find a car on a new car lot that has this type of precision alignment. The doors close like a bank vault. The amazing part is the seller said the cosmetics were "about a 9 out of 10 ???". I'd say more like 99/100. If this car is a 9 then my 72 GTS must be a 6.. ?

Anyway, just wanted everyone to know that I had a happy ending that exceeded my expectations by a long shot.
